A limited number of discounted Pay-One-Price tickets for the 2022 Northwest Montana Fair Carnival and Rodeo are on sale now at all Whitefish Credit Union branches, the fair office and the CHS store in Kalispell.
Purchased in advance, tickets are $25 each and can be exchanged at carnival ticket booths for a wristband that allows a person unlimited rides on most attractions for a day. Tickets can be used every day of the carnival from August 17-21 and are the cheapest way to experience the rides. Fairgoers can purchase tickets until 5:00 PM on August 16 or while supplies last. Wristbands will also be available at all carnival ticket booths during the fair for $35 each.
Fairgrounds Manager Sam Nunnally said North Star Amusements has strict sanitation measures in place to protect the health of guests and workers. All travel and contact points will be disinfected between uses. Hand sanitizer will be available at the entrances and exits of all rides, and hand washing stations will be located throughout the carnival and fairgrounds.
Admission to the fair is a separate fee at the gate and costs $8 for adults and teens, $5 for seniors age 65 and older, and $5 for children ages six to 12. Children aged five and over are admitted free of charge.
Fairgoers can save money by purchasing admission tickets through Aug. 19 or while supplies last at any Whitefish Credit Union branch in Kalispell, Columbia Falls or Whitefish during normal bank hours beginning Aug. 1. Advance admission tickets are $5 per person, regardless of age.
Senior/Children’s Day is Thursday, August 18 at the fair. Seniors age 65 and older and children age 12 and older are admitted to the grounds free of charge that day.
